Why Tito is sharing it
Tito Needs a Kidney shares Tito’s lived experience with kidney disease, dialysis, waiting for transplant, living donation, and transplantation. The difficulty of waiting for a kidney makes policy conversations about living donation meaningful to him.
This is personal context, not medical, legal, or policy expertise. Tito Needs a Kidney is an independent lived-experience site; it is not an official source for the bill or campaign.
